I don’t really care about any calendar contest. He’s a good rooster though. Looks a little rough since he’s already started to molt.

I know you don't.
But i always get a calendar I would like to see your pictures in there.
More game fowl...less silkies lol.

It all depends but usually no more than a dozen. I usually give hens between 6-8 depending on how many I want. I generally let them raise the chicks so it’s easier if she has no more than around 8. Either way if you give them eggs separate them so they have their own secluded space or you’ll most likely end up with broken eggs and dead chicks.
